a Blackburn-Wolves pairing the 100/1 outsiders. ‘There is enormous interest in the outcome of the relegation scrap so we’ve created a market allowing punters to bet on BOTH of the unfortunate sides who will play in the Championship next season’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

Are Blackpool Going Holl-the-way Down?

Ian Holloway’s Blackpool are the 15/8 favourites to finish bottom of the Premier League with William Hill and as short as 4/11 to be relegated. Wolves, who were hammered 3-0 by Stoke on Tuesday night, are 4/6 to be relegated and 4/1 to finish bottom of the Premier League pile.

Hills are offering 8/5 that the three sides beginning with ‘W’ get relegated and 40/1 that the three teams beginning with ‘B’ are relegated this season.

‘We recently took a €30,000 bet on the Tangerines going down. It looked like a brave bet at the time, but you understand why he stuck his neck out,’ said William Hill spokesman Joe Crilly, ‘ Blackpool have lost 10 of their last 15 games in the league and they now sit perilously close to the drop zone.’

8/5 3 W’s to be relegated this season (West Ham, Wolves, Wigan)
40/1 3 B’s to be relegated this season (Blackburn, Blackpool, Birmingham)

William Hill Premier League Easter Weekend Specials

*************************************WILLIAM HILL PREMIER LEAGUE SPECIALS****************************************************************

Wenger-to-go odds cut:
GUNNERS 7/1 TO BLOW IT AGAIN

Arsenal threw away yet another winning position against Tottenham on Wednesday and Hills are offering 7/1 that Arsenal lead against Bolton this weekend, yet still fail to win.
ARSENE WENGER HAS BEEN CUT FROM 6/1 TO 10/3 NO LONGER TO BE ARSENAL MANAGER ON THE FIRST DAY OF NEXT SEASON, AND LENGTHENED FROM 1/12 TO 1/5 STILL TO BE THERE. ‘Noone can doubt Wenger’s mangerail achievements but even the most patient of fans and boards eventually demand some silver on the table’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
And Hills now make Chelsea favourites to finish above the Gunners this season. ‘Arsenal have thrown away several priceless opportunities to catch Man U, and now run the risk of finishing 3rd as Chelsea’s recovery gathers pace and the Gunners’ reputation for being unable to hold on to a lead grows’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.

TIE-T AT THE TOP?

With Manchester United only managing a draw against Newcastle on Tuesday, Chelsea closed to within six points – level with Arsenal. William Hill think that with United still to play their two big rivals, there is an outside chance that there could be a tie at the top come the final day of the season. Hills offer 12/1 that any two sides finish top with the same amount of points and 100/1 that all three do.

**How Many Sides Will Top The Table On The Last Day Of The Season: 1/50 Winner on points; 12/1 Two sides level on points; 100/1 Three level on points

UNITED TO MISS OUT? Out of the FA Cup, Man Utd are now 11/2 with Hills to win nothing this season, and 11/4 to win the Double.

Hills…Jack Rodwell to be at Man Utd 1st Day Next Season?
Yes…7/2
No…1/6

WILLIAM HILL…..TORRES NOW 3/1 TO FAIL TO SCORE THIS SEASON

Consigned to a bit part against Birmingham, Fernando Torres once again failed to find the net against Birmingham and William Hill have cut his odds from 7/2 to 3/1 to fail to score before the end of the season. He is 8/13 to bag his first goal against West Ham on Saturday.

“Nobody would have envisioned such a poor return from Torres and every game that goes by merely increases the chance of him failing to score before the end of the season,” said Hill’s spokesman Joe Crilly.

When Will Torres Next Score?
West Ham H 8/13
Tottenham H10/3

WITH NEW RESERVES of cash likely to be haded to Kenny Dalglish to spend next season, William Hill still believe Liverpool are likely to have to settle for a place between 5th and 10th in the table next season – quoting that at 1/8. ‘Optimistic news are emanating from Anfield about next season, but we remain to be convinced that Liverpool will be serious title contenders’ said Hill’s spokesman Graham Sharpe.
